Just curious what ya'll think of these 3 REAR axles and what your choice is, and what ya's think is stronger.
I got 2 trucks with FF14 bolt, and one with Dana 60 rear axle.......But I say 14 bolt is stronger!
I believe the FF14 bolt is the strongest light truck axle I even know of one person that took out a 60 and put in a 14 because he kept breaking the 60 ==2cents ==2cents
ill take my D70HD rear.... if i cant have that i'll take my good ol 14bolt FF :)
the newer sterling 10.5's out of the newer super duty fords come w/ disc brakes from the factory. they have a 10.5" ring gear- same as a 14 bolt, but am unsure on shaft diameter.
I run my eaton till it pops then off to a 14 bolt ff!!! they are the best!!!
d60 rear axles are toothpicks we broke both sides on maiden voyage before we even had the truck in a foot of mud with a mild 355. id take a 12 bolt over a 60 the axles are bigger
I'm a 14 bolt fan myself.
14 bolt..parts are plentiful and cheap IF you ver break one
Eaton all the way!! then d70 rear if eaton breaks.

carry spares, and upgrade to better axle shafts. id take a 60 over a SF any day of the week
